The Canon EOS R50 is a powerful and affordable camera that offers impressive specs for its price. Despite being small, it is comfortable to hold and has a positive tactile feel. The touch screen is intuitive, and the camera features a handy advanced auto mode for beginners. The camera uses Canon's LP E17 batteries, which are good for about 350 shots or an hour of 4K video shooting. The autofocus system is fast, silent, and accurate, rivaling that of more expensive models. The camera's APS-C sized sensor captures excellent detail and reproduces Canon's signature colors. However, noise levels become noticeable at higher ISO settings. Video quality is detailed and remains good up to ISO 800, but noise becomes problematic at higher ISO levels. The camera also offers a high frame rate slow motion mode of up to 120 frames per second, which is a nice feature. The only major downside is the limited selection of APS-C RF Mount lenses, restricting the system's versatility.
